The question on this victory is … Is Rishabh Pant lost his trust in himself, sent to the unaccounted player before him – Has Rishabh Pant Lost Faith in Himself He Sent Batting an Uncapped Player Ahead of Him Know Whay LSG VS KKR MATCH

New Delhi: The team of Lucknow Supergiants led by captain Rishabh Pant defeated Kolkata Knight Riders by 4 runs in the 21st match of IPL 2025. This was the third win of 5 matches in Lucknow’s tournament. Mitchell Marsh (81) and Nicholas Puran (87) made a splash in batting for the team. Due to the strong performance of these two players, Lucknow scored a huge score of 238 runs for 3 wickets in the scheduled 20 overs, but despite this, the team was in danger of defeat. Team captain Rishabh Pant did not take the field for batting in Mukabale. When Michale Marsh was out, everyone felt that captain Pant would come to bat at number four. Marsh was out in 15.2 overs. That is, 28 balls of Lucknow’s innings were left. In such a situation, he sent an unaccounted player Abdul Samad for batting instead of himself. This is the reason why questions are now being raised on his strategy.

Rishabh Pant is running in poor form

There is no doubt that Rishabh Pant is one of the most destroyer players of the present time, but his form is not with him in this season of IPL. He has batted in four of the five matches played so far, in which Pant has scored 19 runs. In such a situation, the question arises whether Pant does not believe in himself due to this bad form. Pant is a player who has the ability to turn the match in 10 balls.

Pant had a chance against KKR that she would bat fearlessly, as the team was batting first. In such a situation, there was no significant pressure to chase the target. However, despite this, Rishabh Pant, the most expensive player in IPL history, kept himself in a dugout and sent Abdul Samad for batting which was not effective. Samad was dismissed for just 6 runs in 4 balls.
